“Good-bye Summer!”
Now that Labor Day Weekend has come and gone, is summer over? And by extension has ski season begun? Is it that time of year to start thinking about new gear and dreaming of big pillows and face shots? Clothing stores already have their Fall lines in, but are you really interested in Fall? Winter is for the mountains, Spring corn is killer, summer has girls in bikinis – is Fall just build-up for Winter and therefore the start of ski season?
Or are you the type of nostalgic guy that enjoys this neither here – nor there season and believes winter begins with the first snowfall, or even the first day of snowmaking (ahem Northeasters). Or perhaps you’re the type of traditionalist that believes in waiting for walk signs, picking up after your dog, and that winter doesn’t begin until December 21st…
Thoughts, opinions?
i was skiing last weekend in canada on new snow
im guessing jumbo? havent heard of any snow in the fernie area
me to up in AK
I’ve been skiing twice…in my dreams. Not a joke. Two ski dreams before September.
Tic Toc…….
rode foot and half of fresh two days ago. NZ
treble cone?
Yee bro! I give you thumbs up for good guess.
i looked at powder skis on the internet.
My new Smith gear came in last week, Northface will be here on Friday, bindings next week, Icelantic skis/first degree boots in October, and Flylow/Mountain Hardwear when it gets here. I am not ready for winter at all am I?
Fall is the best season.
I agree, tails are going to be tackkkkky
If the girl in the red and black bikini wanted to party, big pillows and face shots would be all I was thinking about.
We started receiving ski boots at our shop in the last few weeks. Fischer Vacuums (along with a big ass Vacuum system that looks like a stair master). Lange Boots have also made land here in the Bay Area. I am personally still awaiting my October shipments of Never Summer decks & Ride bindings. Fall is for Halloween & Powder nocturnal emissions.
Never Summer- Cool, Im ok with that
But Ride Bindings? haha, c’mon on man, as a shop employee you can do way better than that
Sept. 22, Tough Mudder at flatstar. Roller Derby on the river in Reno. Street Vibrations. And the Level 1 premier of “Sunny” out back of the Moment factory. Sounds like Winter knocking at my door.
Summer is just like meeting Heidi Klum randomly on the street, making quick conversation, exchanging phone numbers and somehow pulling out your big boy stops and nutting up to ask her on a date. Fall is pretty much the unbearable waiting period between the first and third date, because she’s a classy lady and won’t put out til the anticipation builds up to the point you’re pulling your hair out. Winter, oh glorious winter, is that night after the third date where Heidi takes you back to her apartment, where seven other Victoria Secret icons are in the midst of a lingerie pillow fight, and ask you to join in (void if skiing at northstar). Bam!
Fall means mountain biking. The worst month of the year is May. Duh.
